Hopalong Cassidy never struck me anything! ;-) Anyway, all sorts of titles
were flying about the discussion table and when he mentioned Hopalong
Cassidy everyone else was like hurh? Oh well.
Cheers,

> Hopalong Cassidy ('49) was probably more of a kids show than a drama that
aired in the evening for adults. The Lone Ranger and Hoppy were the start
of kids merchandising tie-ins. But they were dramas for Saturday morning
TV, when the kids were home from school. Of course, Howdy Doody ('47) was
the first kid's show and aired daily for years.
